Newbie Salute
Hi to everybody!
I'm a newbie here and I present myself:
The nick 'INNOVARI' has been with me since I've seen the works of SYD MEAD on his wonderful book Sentinel (1979).
In the book there was an illustration of a prototype car named INNOVARI designed by Mead for U.S. Steel. The quote of the artwork said:
"The 'Innovari' prototype was intended to be a catalogue of the many ways (a large proportion of them innovative) in which steel could be used to great advantage in a new era of design."
The car was actually produced as prototype by U.S. Steel during the seventies.
The words "new era of design" and the works of many Sci-Fi and Fantasy illustrators drove me to do my artworks during the years.
Also the word "innovari" is important for me. Is a Latin word that mean innovation/renewal, and it really represent me and my work in the illustration field and in the 'real world'.
Outside of Cyberspace, my name is Luca Oleastri. I continue to use the name Innovari for my on-line persona as well as the 'nom de plume' for the artworks I've done.
Currently I've been building my worlds in Bologna, Italy, where I share a home with my wife Raffaella and our cat Leeloo.

Hey Luca! Great running into you again. As I said in another thread, this is Eric who hired you to do some Galactic Emperor artwork a while back! That game unfortunately is no longer up but you did some great work for it. Looking forward to seeing what you've been up to since then!
I run a weekly Firefly podcast now, Firefly Talk, at fireflytalk.com.
See you around!
Eric
